Short filmTranscript
00:00:12Before the Civil War, New Orleans was unique in all the world, more French than it was American.
00:00:19Races freely mixed, creating a new class known as Creoles, or free people of color.
00:00:25European men were especially enchanted by the exotic light-skinned women of this class,
00:00:30whose ancestors were the children of master and slave, Spanish and French.
00:00:35Big night tonight.
00:00:41Parties were thrown at the old Orleans ballroom, where the Europeans would select the young women,
00:00:47pledge support, raise families with them, yet never marry.
00:00:51One such liaison, that between Jean-Baptiste and Poupon de Lille,
00:00:56produced a daughter whose dreams would change the old Orleans ballroom and her world forever.
00:01:03Au revoir.
00:01:04Au revoir.
00:01:05Merci.
00:01:09Au revoir.
00:01:13Au revoir.
00:01:24Oh, I'm late.
00:01:33Grandmama gave it to me, to wear on my night.
00:01:36For luck.
00:01:37It brought me love.
00:01:39It will bring you the same.
00:01:43See you, Leigh.
00:01:45Papa, Mama has to finish my hair.
00:01:48I want you to show me those fancy new steps of yours.
00:01:51A reverse, likely, as a bird suddenly flies.
00:01:55So, one, two.
00:01:56I will fly like a bird, but I won't have a partner if my hair's a bird's nest.
00:02:03Marcella?
00:02:04Mm-hmm.
00:02:09Chin up, chin up.
00:02:10You don't need to see.
00:02:11You must trust your partner.
00:02:12Oh, I'd like to know where I'm going, Papa.
00:02:14But then you should not waltz.
00:02:16It is the quadrille for you.
00:02:17Or, uh, de poker.
00:02:27Bonsoir, Jean-Baptiste.
00:02:29Bonsoir, Shirley.
00:02:31Aurillette, late.
00:02:32On your sister's night, she forgets everything else when she's in the classroom.
00:02:37Forgive me, Sealy.
00:02:38And will you forget next year, when it is your turn?
00:02:41I certainly hope so.
00:02:43I might not be able to waltz by then, anyway.
00:02:45Oh, nonsense.
00:02:46Nonsense!
00:02:48You must stop with your grand opinions.
00:02:50It will only upset her.
00:02:52I'm not going to say another word about it.
00:02:54It was so dull without you on Sunday dinner.
00:02:58Mama didn't need a thing.
00:03:01Well, I, um...
00:03:04Only had to...
00:03:07Girl?
00:03:08Betsy?
00:03:09What is that wine I asked for?
00:03:11Sorry, Mr. Jean.
00:03:12Don't give me excuses, girl.
00:03:14Bring me some wine.
00:03:19Papa, was I doing it so wrong?
00:03:22Maybe you will be ready next year.
00:03:24If you keep your chin up.
00:03:27La.
00:03:28La.
00:03:28Chin up.
00:03:29Chin up.
00:03:33I know you will have a wonderful time, ma chere.
00:03:36You look beautiful.
00:03:36But you said you would attend with us.
00:03:38I wish I could, but unfortunately, I have important business.
00:03:43Bonsoir, mon amour.
00:03:44Bonsoir.
00:03:45But, papa, I...
00:03:48Celie, every man there will watch you dance and wish he were your partner.
00:03:51By the way, your bird's nest looks lovely.
00:03:54Mm-hmm.
00:03:55Abiento.
00:03:56Bonsoir.
00:03:58Yep.
00:04:13Je vous présente, monsieur Samuel, tout près.
00:04:19Enchanté.
00:04:25Your father has chosen well.
00:04:28Pray for her.
00:04:29Pray for love, Henriette.
00:04:41Je vous présente, monsieur Samuel, tout près.
00:05:02Amelia, et goethe patitio, in nomine patres, et fili, et spiritus sancti.
00:05:15Amen.
00:05:16Amen.
00:05:21My mom, why isn't papa here?
00:05:24Obviously, the business of the plantation is taking longer than expected.
00:05:29Well, he said he was going to be here.
00:05:32Your papa has not stayed with me for 25 years because I insist that he be here or there.
00:05:38Don't you care?
00:05:40Questions.
00:05:41Henriette, always questions.
00:05:44Ask too many questions and you will drive your man away.
00:05:49Marie is going to meet us at the boat.
00:05:51She's bringing school supplies and Julie and I promised to be there.
00:05:55You'll be very careful.
00:05:56Well, it's dangerous there since the Americans came.
00:06:00Au revoir.
00:06:02Au revoir.
00:06:03Au revoir.
00:06:18Now, let's start the bidding.
00:06:19We're going to get 150, ladies and gentlemen.
00:06:22150, do I hear 150?
00:06:23Yes, sir.
00:06:24200, anyone?
00:06:25200.
00:06:27Yes, sir.
00:06:33325, 325.
00:06:35Do I hear a good?
00:06:36Yes.
00:06:39Papa?
00:06:45Were you addressing me?
00:06:47No, sir.
00:06:48I thought I knew the gentleman who we were talking to.
00:06:52Did you now?
00:06:53Henriette.
00:06:55Henriette.
00:06:57I thought I just saw my papa.
00:07:00Bonjour.
00:07:01Bonjour.
00:07:02Here's the bread we wanted for Marie.
00:07:05Henriette.
00:07:06Be right there.
00:07:07Can I go to that for you?
00:07:24Would you like some?
00:07:27Give me that.
00:07:28Hey, do it.
00:07:30Give me some.
00:07:32Miss, let me do that for you.
00:07:34No, no.
00:07:37You're sitting semen.
00:07:41In a city like this, the masters do nothing?
00:07:46Oh, yes.
00:07:48Can't work not that.
00:07:49Henriette.
00:07:51Jacques!
00:07:52Get over here!
00:07:54Yes, sir.
00:07:56Don't make me call you twice.
00:07:58Get over there and help Mrs. Morgan with her things.
00:08:01Sorry, ma'am.
00:08:02Let me get toast for you.
00:08:04What am I giving Marie now?
00:08:06Oh, she won't go hungry tonight, Julie.
00:08:09Oh, there she is.
00:08:10Marie!
00:08:14Oh, my God.
00:08:16Excuse me, sir.
00:08:17Would you mind something?
00:08:23No!
00:08:28Hello, ma'am.
00:08:29I'm coming.
00:08:32I'm coming.
00:08:33Let me help you.
00:08:34Look at that.
00:08:35No, no, no.
00:08:37Look at that.
00:08:49Apparently, I miss the Delta waters more than I knew.
00:08:53Oh, thank you.
00:08:55So much trouble for such an old maid.
00:08:57Listen, I'll do it again. It's kind of hot out here anyway.
00:09:02Enough of that. It'll go to his head, and I'll get a week of sulking and slow service out of
00:09:09him.
00:09:09Sir, he dove in to save a woman's life, while the rest of you stood by checking your wash fobs.
00:09:14There are laws against Sasser.
00:09:18Better learn that for your own good.
00:09:24Jack, clean yourself up. I don't want people thinking that we dress you like that.
00:09:34Looks like Plainspeed and Sardin. How can you make me leave Charleston for this?
00:09:40Look at them, parading around.
00:09:43Give it time, dear. Things are going to change.
00:09:47Well, is anyone else for a swim?
00:09:50Allow me to introduce myself. I am Gerard Gauthier.
00:09:52My parents have just taken up residence in a plantation up near Ponce-Train.
00:09:56Enchanté. I'm Marie Alicott, and these are my good friends Julie Godin and Henriette Delisle.
00:10:02Welcome to New Orleans.
00:10:03Would you do me the honor of allowing me to see you home?
00:10:06We have our own carriage, but thank you.
00:10:08Then at least I can carry your things.
00:10:10Well, well, well.
00:10:12The accent's not from the West Indies. I think he's from France.
00:10:14You can always ask him at the ball next week.
00:10:16I'm not going to the ball.
00:10:17Well, but it's been arranged.
00:10:21Oh, I saw my father today. Of course he didn't see me.
00:10:25I don't want that. Not for me, not for my children.
00:10:28I expect you'll be telling your mother soon.
00:10:31She'll understand.
00:10:33Ah, you've imported rocks?
00:10:37They're books. We're teachers at the parish school, and Marie's a missionary.
00:10:41Oh, wonderful. These will be difficult to accomplish with dignity.
00:10:47I'm sure you'll be able to manage somehow.
00:10:49Oh, only we shall steadfastly leave and encourage my mamas.
00:10:57One, two, three, four.
00:11:00Excellent. That's it for today.
00:11:02Au revoir. Merci.
00:11:05Thank you. Au revoir.
00:11:07Au revoir. Merci. Au revoir.
00:11:10Au revoir. Merci.
00:11:19I'm so glad we found you a parish, Father Rousselon.
00:11:22The cathedral seemed, well, full of foreigners.
00:11:24We're glad to find you, Mrs. Morgan, and to have your husband as a warden.
00:11:31I can't give some class for girls this late.
00:11:35It's very good, Simone.
00:11:41Slave children.
00:11:43Mrs. Morgan slaves are God's children, too.
00:11:47We are allowed to teach them at night.
00:11:49Henriette.
00:11:51Bonsoir, Father.
00:11:52Bonsoir.
00:11:53Bonsoir, Father.
00:11:54This is our newest student, Simone.
00:11:56Her father will bring her to church on Sunday.
00:11:59That's my Jacques' daughter.
00:12:01I can read, Father.
00:12:03Very good.
00:12:04Very good.
00:12:05Teaching colors to read requires permission.
00:12:14God is love.
00:12:18Repeat.
00:12:19God is love.
00:12:22Excellent.
00:12:29Henriette, do you have their permission?
00:12:33You know it's illegal to teach slaves to read without their master's consent.
00:12:38How can they learn the catechism unless they read it?
00:12:41How can they truly worship if they can't read the Bible?
00:12:44Do the masters know, Henriette?
00:12:47God knows.
00:13:08How can they learn the catechism unless they learn the catechism unless they learn the catechism unless they learn the
00:13:10catechism unless they learn the catechism unless they learn the catechism unless they learn the catechism unless they learn the
00:13:10catechism unless they learn the catechism unless they learn the catechism unless they learn the catechism unless they learn the
00:13:10catechism unless they learn the catechism unless they learn the catechism unless they learn the catechism unless they learn the
00:13:11catechism unless they learn the catechism unless they learn the catechism unless they learn the catechism unless they learn the
00:13:11catechism unless they learn the catechism unless they learn the catechism unless they learn the catechism unless they learn the
00:13:14catechism unless they learn the catechism unless they learn the catechism unless they learn the catechism unless they learn the
00:13:18Henriette what is this I have heard? You are teaching slave children. Do you want to
00:13:24hurt your father? Do you realize he does business with their masters? And the sons of those
00:13:29masters will be attending your ball this week. Do you want them laughing at you behind your
00:13:34back? Do you want them to wash their hands after they finish dancing with you? Henriette
00:13:41I have asked you a question. Papa?
00:13:58No. You will not raid your heart for these white bastards to see.
00:14:16Come on, Henri. She'll blame me if you're not ready.
00:14:20I hate this. You know how much I do.
00:14:24My mom was right about the green.
00:14:29You love him? Who?
00:14:32Samuel? Yes. It is promised that we will be together until we're old and crutchy.
00:14:41But you can't marry, Celie. What difference does it make if he stays with me?
00:14:47God means us to be married till death parts us. To walk across a square openly as man and wife.
00:14:54Otherwise, we're just being bought. It's like the...
00:14:57Look, Henriette, think before you speak.
00:15:04What made you think things would be different with us?
00:15:07Jean-Baptiste, you made a promise to me.
00:15:11Was I naive to believe in you?
00:15:13And I've kept my word. I help you raise the girls.
00:15:17Cecilia is taken care of, and now Henriette is well-placed, too.
00:15:20And me, Jean. Me!
00:15:23I must produce legitimate heirs. You knew that.
00:15:27It is something I must do.
00:15:37You will be ravishing.
00:15:39Every man there will hunger after you.
00:15:42And they will envy your gentleman, Paul Cartier,
00:15:45who has assured me he will provide you with the finest of everything.
00:15:51Did he say for how long?
00:15:54And when I see you in the square tomorrow or the next day,
00:15:57will you see me?
00:16:01You are my beloved children,
00:16:03and you always will be.
00:16:06Even if I can't see you again for a long time.
00:16:11I'm getting married.
00:16:16And then you'll leave us.
00:16:20So this is the life you want for me, Maman?
00:16:24I will not go to the ball.
00:16:27I will not meet Paul Cartier.
00:16:29And how do you intend to live if you don't go to the ball, my dear?
00:16:32How will we?
00:16:35If you have not understood things,
00:16:38your papa has just ended our lives.
00:16:42Oh, papa, don't be so dramatic.
00:16:45You can keep the slave and lease her out.
00:16:47And the house, of course, too, as I promised.
00:16:50Well, at least we won't be begging in the square
00:16:53where you and your wife might see us.
00:16:55Papa.
00:16:56Oh, Jean-Baptiste.
00:16:58If this is my house,
00:17:02get out.
00:17:21No, no, no, no.
00:17:23Not now.
00:17:25Cecilia, you fasten your sister's gown.
00:17:27She's right.
00:17:28Let's go.
00:17:29We will be late if we don't hurry.
00:17:34All right.
00:17:41Not a minute.
00:17:44Okay.
00:17:48Nice to meet you.
00:17:53Nice to meet you.
00:18:01There is no love here.
00:18:05This is what we do.
00:18:07We have no choices.
00:18:24I present you, Mr. Paul Cartier.
00:18:30I am delighted, mademoiselle.
00:18:35Shall we?
00:19:11May I, mademoiselle?
00:19:13May I, mademoiselle?
00:19:13May I, mademoiselle?
00:19:24May I, mademoiselle?
00:19:27May I, mademoiselle?
00:19:39May I, mademoiselle?
00:19:56ORCHESTRA PLAYS
00:20:11Monsieur, you took me by surprise.
00:20:13Was there any other way?
00:20:16Monsieur Gauthier, I have made previous arrangements for this one.
00:20:22But don't worry, there are plenty others to choose from.
00:20:26Shall we dance now?
00:20:29I've always understood that a lady could choose her partner.
00:20:33A lady?
00:20:35Monsieur, I am committed to a year's support.
00:20:38Retire.
00:20:40I'm sure your friends used to believe that you were a gentleman.
00:20:45Sir.
00:20:45I'm sorry, maybe I do not understand the way of things in America.
00:20:52Yet.
00:21:01So this is what's to come of my steadfast belief and encouragement, Gerard Gauthier?
00:21:07You saved me.
00:21:08If you had not taken my hand, I would have been committed to a duel at the Orcs.
00:21:12I am sure of it.
00:21:14Some of the men that attend these balls are suspecting character.
00:21:19I suppose that's to be expected.
00:21:23You have nothing to say for yourself?
00:21:25Forgive me.
00:21:27I only came here to look for you.
00:21:30Oh, yet.
00:21:34May I call on you sometime?
00:21:39Don't look back.
00:21:40Be coy.
00:21:43Good night.
00:21:48What were you thinking tonight?
00:21:50You shamed me, Henriette.
00:21:52Your life is not for me.
00:21:54Oh.
00:21:55My life is not good enough for you.
00:21:58Not good enough for your father.
00:22:00Not good enough for you.
00:22:01I have no say in this.
00:22:03I have no freedom.
00:22:04You get out.
00:22:06You are his.
00:22:08You are just like him.
00:22:09You just get out.
00:22:10Get out, Henriette.
00:22:12Get out of my house.
00:22:13Get out of my house.
00:22:58Who's there?
00:23:01Henriette?
00:23:03Are you hurt?
00:23:04I can't live the life I'm supposed to live.
00:23:06I can't pretend.
00:23:08Then you mustn't.
00:23:10Then I can never go home.
00:23:12You are always welcome here.
00:23:15In God's house.
00:23:18God's house?
00:23:20Yes.
00:23:24Everyone's house.
00:23:38There you go.
00:23:41For you.
00:23:45For you.
00:23:47For you.
00:23:49Oh, Marie will look at your leg over there.
00:23:55Henriette, may I present Dr. Gérard Gauthier?
00:23:58I said I would pay a call.
00:24:01You have already met?
00:24:04Doctor.
00:24:04I was.
00:24:05I gave it up.
00:24:07Dr. Gauthier is trained in the most advanced medical science, and he has come to help our
00:24:11set up the infirmary.
00:24:13You were given the gift of healing, and you gave it up?
00:24:16For what?
00:24:18I'm sorry.
00:24:19I always ask him any questions.
00:24:23In France, I shared a practice with my uncle, but if my patients were so rich, they could
00:24:30have hired God himself to cure them.
00:24:32They certainly did not need me.
00:24:34But you couldn't give it up in your heart.
00:24:36So here you are, helping us.
00:24:39If you will have me?
00:24:41This was your idea.
00:24:44Well, no, I...
00:24:44But Father Rousselon tells me, uh...
00:24:46I just saw a place that would be safe for them.
00:24:49The people of the parish bring food, and Julie, Marie, and I serve it every day to them.
00:24:54So that's where you have been?
00:24:56Here?
00:24:57Oh, I, uh...
00:24:58I called at your cottage more than once.
00:25:00Uh, your sister, Cecilia, is it?
00:25:03She would not give me any information, even when I assured her that my intentions were honorable.
00:25:09She means well.
00:25:12I stay with Julie now.
00:25:15I, uh...
00:25:16I understand your mother is ill.
00:25:19Is there anything I can do?
00:25:22There's nothing the medicine can cure.
00:25:24I apologize.
00:25:26I do not mean to cry.
00:25:29Miss Seeley?
00:25:30Miss Seeley!
00:25:32That's it?
00:25:32My mom went mad.
00:25:34She tried to hurt herself.
00:25:35I finally got us settled in bed.
00:25:36She was a wild thing.
00:25:37She's screaming and running.
00:25:39Amelia, breathe here.
00:25:41Oh, my.
00:25:42My mom, she's screaming and running.

00:35:53she's finally fallen asleep
00:35:55I'm going to put her down
00:36:02oh Yette
00:36:03please
00:36:04you're my sister
00:36:05this ridiculous law about covering or braiding your hair
00:36:09it has no place amongst family
00:36:12I am not your family Samuel
00:36:19have I offended you in some way?
00:36:22I will take care of you as my family
00:36:24I swear
00:36:25but you're not married to Cecilia
00:36:28you know it's only that the law forbids it
00:36:32have you presented my sister and your child to your parents?
00:36:36my parents are in Europe and I'm not close to my family here
00:36:40you know that
00:36:41do they even know you have a daughter?
00:36:43any of them?
00:36:44I cannot change the way things are
00:36:46please Henriette
00:36:48is it just?
00:36:50the way things are?
00:36:55this doctor Gerard
00:36:57Cecilia tells me that
00:36:58he will not be taking care of me either
00:37:00oh
00:37:01I wasn't asking that
00:37:03I just thought
00:37:04perhaps
00:37:05he has introduced you to his parents
00:37:09oh
00:37:10perhaps when the time comes
00:37:21I told master
00:37:23if he touch her again
00:37:25he best kill me
00:37:28and leave Simone alone
00:37:30she going on and on
00:37:32about hope
00:37:34any white church selling hope
00:37:36is selling lies
00:37:37Jacque come on Sunday
00:37:40God's ways are mysterious sometimes
00:37:42but
00:37:43if you open your heart and pray
00:37:45I believe
00:37:45pray?
00:37:46pray?
00:37:47pray for what?
00:37:50for things to get better
00:37:52I did that already
00:37:54I guess your God must be having a joke with me
00:38:03He has a right to his anger
00:38:05perhaps we can only heal his physical wounds
00:38:12I will not give up on him
00:38:14Simone's way too important
00:38:18If I come on Sunday
00:38:20will you sit with me?
00:38:24Mr. Morgan and his wife would not approve
00:38:27and that would be fantastic
00:38:30what about you sit with me?
00:38:34thought so
00:38:38can I walk you on Mr. Lee?
00:38:41that would be fine
00:38:42you're willing to wait?
00:38:56you're willing to go on
00:38:57to your house
00:38:57and I can't walk you on when I am
00:38:57I am
00:39:05I am
00:39:06I am
00:39:10I am
00:39:12I am
00:39:12I am
00:39:12I am
00:39:12I am
00:39:25Such beautiful hands
00:39:27That do so much
00:39:29No
00:39:30But I want to be with you
00:39:32To make my life with you
00:39:36We can't even sit together in church
00:39:39And I won't be your mistress
00:39:41What was I thinking could come of this?
00:39:43Henriette, listen
00:39:45In front of all of these people
00:39:47I ask you
00:39:52Will you do me the honor
00:39:55Of becoming my wife?
00:40:02If it were only possible
00:40:05But it is
00:40:06In France
00:40:07We can be legally married
00:40:09France
00:40:11But my mother, my sister, the church
00:40:14My school
00:40:14We can work together
00:40:15Side by side
00:40:16A man and his wife in France
00:40:18Without this insanity
00:40:20I can't abandon my people
00:40:21But what about yourself?
00:40:24What about your happiness?
00:40:26Gerard
00:40:28To be a wife?
00:40:30No, just to say that
00:40:32Your wife
00:40:35It's like a dream come true
00:40:37But I can't
00:40:37If it means I'm running away
00:40:39Do not say no just yet
00:40:41I will wait
00:40:44As long as you want
00:40:46I will wait
00:41:07There's so many out there
00:41:08Must be the rain
00:41:26I must say
00:41:27It's most encouraging
00:41:29We have 20 more today
00:41:30Welcome them and they will come
00:41:32We're also working on the free families
00:41:33Father
00:41:34You stop bringing too many blacks in here
00:41:36Collection plate's gonna get mighty bear
00:41:37Because no white folks
00:41:38Will be feeling it
00:41:41All colors I've worshipped here together
00:41:43For generations, sir
00:41:44Is that a fact?
00:41:46Well
00:41:47Maybe we better start
00:41:48Having two services then
00:41:50Huh?
00:41:54Miss Henriette
00:41:55That's it?
00:41:56Miss Henriette
00:41:58You must come quick
00:41:59Please, Is this silly?
00:42:00Mr Samuel
00:42:01There's been an accident
00:42:18Mr Samuel's aunt's coming
00:42:21Ma'am, the hearse is here
00:42:22You have to leave
00:42:23We haven't even paid our respects
00:42:25Ma'am, I'm so sorry
00:42:26I shouldn't have let you in
00:42:27In the first place
00:42:28But I'm the only family that he has
00:42:33He hasn't even met his aunt
00:42:35Miss, please
00:42:36You have to go
00:42:38Why?
00:42:38How can they do it?
00:42:39I'm his aunt
00:42:46Bishop Blanc
00:42:50I represent the wardens
00:42:52Of Father Roussillon's church
00:42:54Are you aware of what's been going on
00:42:56These last few months
00:42:58Because it just keeps getting worse
00:43:00And all you do
00:43:01Is nip at the edges
00:43:16I'm gonna catch you
00:43:18Children, children
00:43:19Come, come
00:43:20Come, come
00:43:25Repeat
00:43:26A
00:43:27B
00:43:29C
00:43:32Etienne, why are these lay workers wearing habits?
00:43:37They donated their wardrobes to the needy
00:43:39And simply chose to dress in a uniform more practical for their work
00:43:43The wardens want to put a stop to all this work
00:43:48These women are bringing this parish to life
00:43:50We must refuse
00:43:52I have
00:43:54For now
00:43:56But it's rumored Rome will denounce slavery
00:44:00Our position is precarious with the Americans
00:44:04They want the school closed
00:44:05They want you out
00:44:06And
00:44:08I see you've started an infirmary
00:44:15Many of those we helped return to mass on Sunday
00:44:19The church is filling up
00:44:22With abandoned slaves
00:44:29What they are doing is so clearly God's work
00:44:33And we may not be able to protect them
00:44:39Oh, oh no
00:44:40Not this one too
00:44:41You can't give away your ball gown
00:44:43That one more than any other
00:44:44No
00:44:45I'll keep it
00:44:48You've been speaking with Betsy about freedom
00:44:51Giving away all your clothes
00:44:52And next will be this cottage
00:44:54And where will that leave me and my children?
00:44:56There is no worry
00:44:57God will care for us
00:44:58And my mom?
00:45:01We'll pray for her
00:45:04Everything Samuel left to the children
00:45:07Our children will be giving to his white family
00:45:10Is that how God answers your prayers?
00:45:19After I have this baby
00:45:21It would seem that I will have to attend a ball
00:45:24Because I'll need to find someone to take care of us
00:45:27I hope I look as bewitching
00:45:29As you were when I wear green
00:45:34Are we taking all these, ma'am?
00:45:36And this me too
00:45:37Thank you, ma'am
00:45:38Thank you
00:45:46Miss Henry
00:45:47I came as soon as I heard
00:45:48It's bad, miss
00:46:04She came too soon
00:46:07Gonna die here in my arms
00:46:09And that'll be the end of this
00:46:12I give up on your God
00:46:14Papa
00:46:15Is she here?
00:46:17Ask her
00:46:18I don't want none of this
00:46:19Bad time I may before she die
00:46:22I can't baptize the child
00:46:25I'll send for Father Rousselon
00:46:27But she might die before then
00:46:30There won't be time
00:46:33Please, sister
00:46:36Please
00:46:53Heavenly Father
00:46:54Bless this water with your spirit
00:46:57And make it holy
00:47:00What name do you give this child?
00:47:03Henriette
00:47:10Henriette
00:47:12I baptize you in the name of the Father
00:47:15And of the Son
00:47:17And of the Holy Ghost
00:47:22She's safe now
00:47:37Your baby has a chance to survive
00:47:39You did the right thing
00:47:40There wasn't time to ask for permission, was there?
00:47:44What if my prayers don't work?
00:47:46No, no
00:47:47It was right
00:47:48You changed the world for them tonight
00:47:50Oh, Gerard
00:47:50I felt it
00:47:51I felt it
00:47:52I really did
00:47:53You changed the world for me
00:47:58Do you know how much?
00:48:01You make me feel
00:48:03Hope
00:48:05You make me feel like
00:48:06I can make a difference
00:48:09And yet
00:48:12Will you come with me
00:48:13Will you come with me
00:48:13To meet my parents?
00:48:17Yes
00:48:19And we can be
00:48:21Together
00:48:21Forever
00:48:25Yes
00:48:42Oh, vous êtes très belle
00:48:45Cecilia, let me borrow her dress
00:48:48Hey, I'm going to love you
00:48:59Get out of the way
00:49:18Pardon me
00:49:19Move
00:49:21I can't get my kids
00:49:30Any other people?
00:49:31I have some pain
00:49:32Custard
00:49:34Your people are so dedicated to making us feel inferior
00:49:38Is this our day then?
00:49:41You poking me with daggers
00:49:43Me hanging my head
00:49:46If a man insults me
00:49:47There is no question of what I would do
00:49:50I would oil my pistols
00:49:51And meet them at Twin Oaks
00:49:52I know how to be brave for that
00:49:53But this
00:49:55It is like walking in a fog
00:49:56There are no boundaries
00:49:58The look on their faces
00:50:00I wanted to hide from it
00:50:03Henriette
00:50:04I do not know
00:50:05How to be brave for this
00:50:08I love you
00:50:10I'm sorry
00:50:14We'll both have to learn
00:50:17I'll depend on you for strength in it
00:50:20Perhaps we should spend some time alone
00:50:22Before we fight more ghosts
00:50:24Oh, but I put my dress on
00:50:26I did my hair to meet your mom
00:50:29She's expecting us for dinner
00:50:31Henriette
00:50:33I am afraid
00:50:36You did tell them
00:50:41And they
00:50:43They said
00:50:46They would treat you with kindness
00:50:49Pity
00:50:50Respect
00:50:51Respect for you
00:50:54Their stomachs will turn at the sight of me
00:50:55And then they'll wash their hands twice before I'm gone
00:50:57I cannot protect you from that
00:50:59I don't want to be protected
00:51:01I want to be free of it
00:51:05I'm sorry
00:51:07You don't understand
00:51:09You can't
00:51:10Gerard, I do believe you love me
00:51:12But you can't make me disappear into your world
00:51:19Henriette
00:51:19Please
00:51:20No
00:51:21Let me take you back
00:51:37I didn't recognize you
00:51:41I used to hear the angels sing
00:51:44I can't hear them anymore
00:51:47They're still here
00:51:50I'll see you at the funeral
00:51:53What funeral?
00:51:56You haven't heard them
00:52:00They heard what?
00:52:01Simone
00:52:02Hemorrhaged
00:52:03In the night
00:52:04She never woke up
00:52:11They found our baby sleeping peacefully beside her
00:52:15I heard what you did
00:52:16I'm sure
00:52:17It gave her peace
00:52:27Oh

00:57:15i know
00:57:19i'm sorry

00:57:24it would be nice to have a conversation between us where one of us does not have to say how
00:57:27sorry we are
00:57:30that's
00:57:30what's it
00:57:46that's
00:57:47and solution is very effective in uh
00:57:58Amen.
00:58:19Are you going to pray for me, sister?
00:58:21With all my heart.
00:58:24How is she?
00:58:25The fever broke just an hour ago.
00:58:27The quinine mixture, it was, um, I was trying something new.
00:58:31The quinine had little to do with it.
00:58:34But it was the medicine that saved her.
00:58:39How many times have you given medicine to patients and lost them?
00:58:43But without it?
00:58:44Prayer saved her.
00:58:46How can you believe that?
00:58:47Because it's true.
00:58:51Your sister is well.
00:58:52I do not care why.
00:58:53It does not matter why.
00:58:55This is wonderful, and we can begin to plan again.
00:58:59Henriette, do not turn your back on us.
00:59:02Not now.
00:59:03I'm supposed to be here.
00:59:05My work is here.
00:59:07But we can do even more in France.
00:59:09We can work openly, perhaps build a hospital,
00:59:11and you would not be accused of corrupting the slaves.
00:59:15Because there are no slaves.
00:59:16We can heal bodies and spirits.
00:59:19I prayed for the answers, Gerard.
00:59:23I found out what God wants from me.
00:59:26God has been calling me for a long time, and I can't deny it.
00:59:31I feel God is working through me.
00:59:35I feel God is working through me.
00:59:40You said you wanted an ordinary life.
00:59:45A life with me.
00:59:47I know.
00:59:51We can't have it.
00:59:53And so now, there is nothing for me?
00:59:57Here, we cannot even marry.
01:00:03What do you want from me?
01:00:18Welcome.
01:00:19Thank you, sister.
01:00:23These women are not sisters.
01:00:26You must not call them that.
01:00:28You deceive this parish with those costumes.
01:00:33Thank you, sister.
01:00:37I'm sorry, but this time you'll have to stop wearing them.
01:00:41Well, what am I to wear?
01:00:42I've given everything away.
01:00:45Oh, Kate.
01:00:45Do you know what I see when I pray?
01:00:48I see the Virgin Mary, but her skin is brown.
01:00:51The slaves and the gens de couleur need to know that God is their God, too.
01:00:55And we can't just tell them.
01:00:57Color needs to be seen with their own eyes.
01:01:00God wants black faces working in his church.
01:01:03Henriette, there are forces against you.
01:01:07Powerful people who can ruin everything we've accomplished.
01:01:11We need to go slow.
01:01:12Are we intended to be frightened into submission?
01:01:17Marie?
01:01:19You're crying.
01:01:21The bishop has just banished me from the parish.
01:01:24Banished?
01:01:24Yes.
01:01:26I'm being sent upriver to teach wealthy children on a plantation.
01:01:29Apparently, the wardens have pointed out that it's become illegal for integrated groups to work together.
01:01:34And you knew about this?
01:01:37Hmm.
01:01:39The bishop is forced to disband you.
01:01:41So he's decided to play on the side of the masters.
01:01:45They will also close the parish school since slave children are being taught in the same room as white.
01:01:50I am next on their list.
01:01:55This is going to stop.
01:02:07As I see by your costume, obedience is not a virtue you put much store by.
01:02:15Please, Your Excellence, just hear an idea.
01:02:20There's a house.
01:02:22My friends and I have just enough money to buy it.
01:02:27With donations, there's a building next door that we can fix up and turn into a mother house.
01:02:33You mean to build your own church now?
01:02:37Complete?
01:02:38With a convent?
01:02:39And we need you to bless the endeavor.
01:02:49As there are no colored religious orders,
01:02:53I would be blessing only an act of your pride.
01:02:59But you've seen their faces, those hungry souls that worship in our church.
01:03:03You cannot say you are not moved.
01:03:06Do you expect the Catholic Church of Louisiana to challenge the state?
01:03:10To start a fire that could sweep away what they've left of their freedom?
01:03:15But the reward would be greater than the risk.
01:03:19Even if I believed you should be nuns,
01:03:21it can take years to receive Rome's consideration,
01:03:24and then the answer could well be no.
01:03:26I cannot see how I can help you.
01:03:29Perhaps you don't need to appear to be helping us.
01:03:37This church serves a changing community.
01:03:40Wow, that sounds positively threatening.
01:03:44I understand you have moved to block my appointment of Father Roussillon to the cathedral.
01:03:51We will not continue to tolerate interference in church business.
01:03:56I understand you filed a lawsuit against us.
01:04:00Rather extreme reaction.
01:04:02I thought you should know I also am connected with the courts down in the Delta,
01:04:06and I can assure you money will win out in the end.
01:04:10And I can assure you the rape of a child is considered a sin,
01:04:16even in the Delta.
01:04:19There are no secrets in this parish.
01:04:22What about baptizing a half-breed bastard child outside the church?
01:04:28A warden of the church should be above reproach,
01:04:32especially one married to someone as pious as her wife.
01:04:36But, as I said, the church is here to serve the whole community.
01:04:45May I suggest instead we let them build a place of their own?
01:04:50The coloreds?
01:04:52They'll never do it.
01:04:54But we must let them build it.
01:04:56And if they fail, they fail on their own terms.
01:05:01Because if they don't, there's no telling what trouble they'll cause.
01:05:05Your excellence.
01:05:15Mama?
01:05:17You're so thin.
01:05:19I thought you promised me that you would eat.
01:05:21And you.
01:05:22You look like a nun.
01:05:26You should wear more color.
01:05:30Green.
01:05:32It goes so well with your eyes.
01:05:36Oh, how we danced at the ball.
01:05:41Your papa never danced with another woman after he waltzed with me.
01:05:54Oh.
01:05:56Oh.
01:06:02Oh.
01:06:20It's hard to imagine this as a convent.
01:06:23At this rate, it will take us years to raise enough money to fix it up.
01:06:26We don't have years to waste.
01:06:29To be in effective order, we need a place to live,
01:06:31an infirmary properly equipped, a school,
01:06:35what about your house?
01:06:37Sell my house?
01:06:39Well, the cottage isn't mine to sell.
01:06:42Cecilia needs it to raise a family.
01:06:44My parents worked themselves to death to leave that place to me.
01:06:48Am I mad to consider giving all that up?
01:06:51In the name of God.
01:06:54I think your parents would be proud
01:06:56to know their legacy is being used to serve the community.
01:07:01Julie, we need to sever all of our attachments.
01:07:04And Gerard,
01:07:05were you able to say goodbye so easily?
01:07:09Goodbye?
01:07:12I thought you knew.
01:07:15He's going back to France, Ray.
01:07:19Then a month.
01:07:48For what?
01:07:50For coming.
01:07:52I wasn't sure you would.
01:07:56I've been offered a post at a hospital in Nice,
01:08:00a teaching hospital,
01:08:01quite experimental.
01:08:03You make a wonderful teacher.
01:08:06Oh, yes.
01:08:08Why am I here?
01:08:11My reason...
01:08:13Our church has run out of building funds.
01:08:16Is that all I am to you?
01:08:17No.
01:08:18You might as well have stayed at the boat.
01:08:22I apologize.
01:08:25And that was uncalled for.
01:08:29The truth is I wanted to know whether you still...
01:08:31We'll always love you.
01:08:37My parents have cut me off
01:08:40for refusing to marry the suitable woman
01:08:43they have found.
01:08:45A year ago, I might have,
01:08:48but you changed me.
01:08:51So,
01:08:53now we both work for the poor.
01:08:56Alone.
01:08:58Apart.
01:09:00Gerard, I'm sorry.
01:09:01Sorry.
01:09:03Is that why God made us twin souls?
01:09:05So we could be so unhappy.
01:09:10Such beautiful eyes.
01:09:15Oh.
01:09:18Oh.
01:09:26Oh.
01:09:30Oh.
01:09:31Oh.
01:09:32Oh.
01:09:40It's official.
01:09:42The bishop says we can build the church
01:09:43if we can raise the funds.
01:09:45And do it.
01:10:15Oh.
01:10:18Let's give it a try!
01:10:45Let's give it a try!
01:11:17Let's give it a try!
01:11:39Is it not illegal for blacks to congregate?
01:11:41Yes, it is.
01:11:43Well, something will have to be done.
01:12:11Let's give it a try!
01:12:14Let's give it a try!
01:12:16In the meantime, he has appointed me to your church.
01:12:20He's a clever man.
01:12:21Our parish is very lucky to have you.
01:12:24I'm only disappointed we're suddenly so far from our goal.
01:12:28Ri, remember Sister Martha when we were in school?
01:12:31No cross, no crown?
01:12:33We are going to see this through.
01:12:36Until the Pope himself invites us to Rome and says,
01:12:40You must be Sister Julie.
01:12:43I have heard so much about you.
01:13:09What are you doing?
01:13:12Being a nun.
01:13:14Oh, that sense of humor again.
01:13:17Do you see the chapel?
01:13:18I'd say it hasn't been clean this week.
01:13:20No, we just finished...
01:13:22I'll return to inspect it.
01:13:25After dinner.
01:13:31Shall we just cut your tongue out and be over with it?
01:13:34Julie, what are we supposed to learn here?
01:13:36How to keep a conference spotless.
01:13:39We could be serving on the outside.
01:13:41Teaching.
01:13:42Scrub.
01:13:43Scrub!
01:13:44Scrub!
01:13:45Scrub!
01:13:46Scrub!
01:13:47Would you like some help?
01:13:48Reverend Mother, Jesus washed the feet of his apostles.
01:14:03Mr. Superior.
01:14:21Here we go.
01:14:22Let's see.
01:14:37On the floor.
01:14:41Oh, Reverend Mother.
01:14:43I'm sorry.
01:14:45There's something with these flowers at night.
01:14:47It reminds me of my mother's perfume.
01:14:51She's a very famous author.
01:14:52Oh, Reverend Mother.
01:14:55Does it make you sad?
01:14:58When I was in office, I was too proud to admit my previous life still mattered for me.
01:15:03The more I pretended, the worse it felt.
01:15:06I worry that conquering my own pride is impossible.
01:15:10That's what this grubbing is for, to help you sleep.
01:15:15Did you love someone?
01:15:21I thought so.
01:15:23I try to forget.
01:15:27I try to stop.
01:15:29Why?
01:15:31Do you think because you're becoming a nun you stop being a woman?
01:15:35You must bring all of yourself to service.
01:15:38It's your humanity which will give you compassion for those who most need to be saved.
01:15:46Good night, Shale.
01:15:48Good night, Reverend Mother.
01:16:01Good night.
01:16:04Father!
01:16:05It's yellow fever.
01:16:07So many are sick.
01:16:08I'm sorry, but the infirmary is closed.
01:16:10Please, Father.
01:16:11The hospitals are full.
01:16:12They're even turning away white folks.
01:16:13Um, run to the St. Michael's convent.
01:16:17Tell Sister Henriette and Julie, tell them to come fast as they can run.
01:16:30Sister Henriette.
01:16:32Hospital four.
01:16:33Don't turn us away.
01:16:35Master Morgan, he's sick bad with fever.
01:16:38He needn't, didn't he?
01:16:39Put him here on the table.
01:16:41I will pay for a bed.
01:16:43Mrs. Morgan, the beds are taken.
01:16:45Your money won't make a difference here.
01:16:48I can pay for anything you need.
01:16:50Your money can't even buy quinine.
01:16:52Only doctors can get it, and we don't have one here.
01:16:58I'll take care of her.
01:17:00There are more coming, white and black.
01:17:02Look at this.
01:17:02We need a miracle.
01:17:03Short of that, you must rest.
01:17:08Amen.
01:17:18Mary!
01:17:19Oh, yeah.
01:17:21Oh, Marie.
01:17:25I heard what's been happening here while I was on the plantation.
01:17:31Marie.
01:17:32Marie.
01:17:38Oh, my goodness.
01:17:43Who could have sent you this much quinine?
01:17:46I'm here, doctor.
01:17:48My dear Henriette, you know my wish is to give you so much more than mere medicine.
01:17:53Whenever you are in need, look to your heart, and I will be there.
01:17:58Love, Gerald.
01:18:00I swear, God.
01:18:01Good luck.
01:18:07Good luck.
01:18:12Good hakiki
01:18:13Mmmeno.
01:18:16Good, God.

01:18:28Good Definitely.
01:18:29You are here I want.
01:18:29Good interview.
01:18:30Come to God.
01:18:53I'm so cold.
01:19:00Can you forgive me?
01:19:02I'll send for Father Ruslan.
01:19:14Sister.
01:19:17I'm... I'm afraid.
01:19:21Sister, forgive me.
01:19:28I will pray for your forgiveness, Mr. Morgan.
01:19:43Father!
01:19:47Father!
01:19:49Father!
01:19:50Father!

01:20:27You have to go now.
01:20:28Yes.
01:20:29Sister, help!
01:20:30Come on.
01:20:35We have to leave now.
01:20:37We have to leave now.
01:20:50Everyone up.

01:22:11Boo!
01:22:12Boo!
01:22:13Oh, my God.

01:22:46Julie!
01:22:48Look at the angel God has sent us!
01:23:25Henriette! Rest. I'll help you.
01:23:28Sister Julie.
01:23:41Sister Henriette, you need funds.
01:23:46Let me look and see what's in the coffers of the diocese.
01:23:51Oh, thank you, Your Excellency.
01:23:55Thank you, my child.
01:24:06No, wait. Let it be.
01:24:09It will give everyone something to think about.
01:24:30Sister.
01:24:34Nossa's wife freed us this morning.
01:24:35She paid the fee for all of us, the entire household and the field slaves.
01:24:39Oh, God bless her.
01:24:42I always dreamt to this day.
01:24:45I figured my first day of freedom I was gonna sleep till I wake up.
01:24:49Then I was gonna roll over and go back to sleep again.
01:24:54Instead, I got my life packed up and I'm gonna be on a riverboat by sundown.
01:24:59And that feels mighty fine.
01:25:00God bless you.
01:25:03Goodbye, sister.
01:25:04And thank you for everything.
01:25:10Her name is Jean.
01:25:14I love you.
01:25:20I love you.
01:25:21I love you.
01:25:24I love you.
01:25:25I love you.
01:25:26I love you.
01:25:27I love you.
01:25:27Try, Tata.
01:25:27Tell me.
01:25:28I love you.
01:25:29Go, go, go.
01:25:30Onryette's community received a formal religious rule of life.

01:25:36They bought the old Orleans Ballroom and converted it into a sanctuary for education and the needy.
01:25:43Today they continue to service the poor, the sick and the illiterate.
